Forked by Aaron C Gaudette on 13 Jan. 2017. See here. This is an updated version of the original.
This is an implementation of FlatBuffers in pure JavaScript. Unlike the official compiler, this implementation generates JavaScript code to convert between JavaScript objects and FlatBuffers at run time using the JIT. It currently requires binary schemas compiled with the flatc
compiler, which is written in C++ and has to be built (see the build instructions).
Create a schema called example.fbs
:
table Example {
x: float;
y: float;
}
root_type Example;
Generate the binary schema called example.bfbs
:
flatc --binary --schema example.fbs
Install this library:
npm install acg-flatbuffers
Use the library:
var flatbuffers = require('acg-flatbuffers');
var fs = require('fs');
var example = flatbuffers.compileSchema(fs.readFileSync('example.bfbs'));
var generated = example.generate({ x: 1, y: 2 });
var parsed = example.parse(generated);
console.log('generated:', Array.from(generated));
console.log('parsed:', parsed);
Running that code should print this:
generated: [ 12, 0, 0, 0, 8, 0, 12, 0, 8, 0, 4, 0, 8, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 64, 0, 0, 128, 63 ]
parsed: { x: 1, y: 2 }
